I know what you are going through. One piece of advice that I can give you is to keep quiet about your offense. No one needs to know. If anyone asks you what you are in for, just make up something and stick to it. In other words, say you just broke the law and you are serving your time. My son is incarcerated for the same thing and he has learned to just stay quiet and stand up for yourself. Just don't let anyone know anything about yourself. You will be okay. Keep strong and keep your faith in God and all will be okay. My prayers are with you

Sorry Zagava but I have to disagree on making something up. People at my mans jail have had people at home look inmates up on the net and find out what they are in for. If you are found lying to them, it will only make them hate and target you more. Most likely you will not be kept seperate. If someone asks you what you are there for, you dont have any reason to tell them anything if you dont want to. My man tells them it is none of their damn business. If they find out anyway and get in his face over it, he asks what their damn problem is and gets in their faces. He says its his only defense as 2 SO's have been beat to death in the last year in this state for the same charges. The best defense you will have is to act like everyone else. Dont walk around with your head down as if you are guilty of something worse than any of them are. They dont care if you touched someone or not, or even if you are guilty.

Relax, you will be pleasantly surprised that it will not be to bad at all.
